<p>While the Liga MX season is still in its early stages at Matchday 4, Club América is already facing significant challenges in the Clausura season. Following three matches without a win, this upcoming home game against Necaxa presents a critical opportunity for the team to turn things around. The pressure is mounting on Coach Andre Jardín, who has been leading the club since 2023, and the longer they remain winless, the more intense that pressure will become.</p>
<h2>How to Watch Club América vs. Necaxa, Odds</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Date:</strong> January 31st (Saturday) | <strong>Time:</strong> 5 PM ET</li>
<li><strong>Location:</strong> Ciudad de los Deportes Stadium, Mexico City, Mexico</li>
<li><strong>Live Stream:</strong> CBS Sports Golazo Network</li>
<li><strong>Odds:</strong> Club América -196; Draw +290; Necaxa +525</li>
</ul>
<p>Necaxa will miss their new player Julian Carranza due to a red card received in their last match. Both teams are struggling, with Necaxa managing to score three goals this season, which still eclipses Club América's zero. Injuries, particularly to American midfielder Alex Zendejas, have hampered Club América, although the team has sufficient depth to weather these setbacks.</p>
<p>Allan Saint-Maximin has made a notable impact since joining, netting three goals and providing two assists in his first ten appearances, but his performance has not carried over well post-break. With the Concacaf Champions Cup matches approaching—Club América is set to face Olimpia on Tuesday—the team needs every player to step up. If they enter that match with four consecutive losses, their chances of advancing in the continental tournament could quickly diminish. Recent statistical data indicates a significant drop in their expected goals, highlighting their offensive struggles.</p>

<p>While it may be premature to label this a must-win game early in the season, Club América certainly needs to show significant improvement at home. If they continue to falter, changes may soon be on the horizon.</p>
